Scenes of monkey using typewriter
VO: "The laws of probability plus chance indicate that if an infinite number of monkeys are given typewriters and allowed to peck away for an infinite time they will eventually produce all the world's great literature."

After being around this profession for few years, I found this video quite motivational. Funny reactions of chimps reminds me of how we do feel in crazy situations. Haven't anyone felt like the chimp on the moviola after watching impossible-to-edit takes? Haven't any sound engineer felt the same after several hours of shooting and reshooting same scene?
In few words: if you feel down, watch this!

Not terribly amusing look at film making that gets a boost from an adorable cast of chimps and some great old office furniture.

This film could have easily gotten a 4 or even a five from me, the premise was thier (a bunch of monkeys working in the film industry) but it's brought down by one main factor: thier are large gaps of time between the different scenes.This is unacceptable, and I'm surprised know one at the studio where this was produced did anything about it. Still you can't go wrong with monkys it's an intresting premise but not very well executed.

Subject: So That Explains A*P*E!
This film, made by an industrial film company, would have us believe that all of the technical jobs in film production, as well as writing and directing, are done by chimps. On second thought, that explains a lot of the dreck Hollywood has foisted on us over the years. Monsters Crash the Pajama Party was only able to hint at this scandal, but as usual, ephemeral films tell us what is really going on.

To paraphrase Keitel in, "Mean Streets," "He knew. Calvin had it down." Yes, a very honest and refreshing look at the industry I used to work in.

This is a silly and humorous look at the film-making industry with a cast of monkeys. Not really meant to be taken seriously, this is a interesting look into 70's filmmaking.
